My name is Thomas Barnet-Lamb, and I am a lecturer in Mathematics at Brandeis University. My area of academic research is in Number Theory, and more specifically I study potential automorphy and Rapoport-Zink spaces. From 2010--2011 I will be a member of the Institute of Advanced Study in Princeton, NJ.
I completed my dissertation, under the direction of Richard Taylor, in June 2009. Here it is, if you want to read it. (You quite possibly don't though; my papers, found below, cover the same material with less waffle. But maybe you like waffle.)Office: 205 Goldsmith Hall
Postal address: Thomas Barnet-Lamb, Department of Mathematics, Brandeis University, 415 South Street MS 050, Waltham, MA 02454, USA.
This semester I am teaching Math 20a, Calculus of Several Variables. My office hours are Tuesday 1400-1530 and Friday 1500-1630. You can find out much more about the course on its dedicated website.

Introduction to stacks for number theorists (pdf, dvi)
This was my Harvard minor thesis; it's meant to be an expository
account, which might hopefully be useful to other people. Various
people have asked for it, so I thought I'd put it here.
The Dold-Thom theorem (pdf, dvi)
This expository account of the Dold-Thom theorem was written for a
class. It is very likely of interest to no-one at all, but I thought I
would put it here just in case.
While applying for academic jobs in 2008, I wrote a statement of research interests and a teaching statement. They are still fresh enough that they might be of some interest.
I am not cut out for blogging, but if I were, my blog would be called TBLog. It would have a logo a little like the one on this page. (NB the logo changes with time.)
